For every dollar a man makes, women, on average, only earn 83¢.

For AANHPI women, the average is 75¢.

#EqualPayDay #EqualPayDay2022
This year’s wage gap data includes part-time & seasonal workers. Previous data only counted full-time workers, which focused on white collar women.

This created an inaccurate picture, especially for women of color.
As AANHPIs, we’ve known that you often have to look beyond the data for the full picture.

Southeast Asians, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders often face wage gaps that are significantly wider than the total AANHPI average. #DisaggregateData
Today is #EqualPayDay, the day when women’s pay catches up to what the average man earned in 2021.

#AANHPIEqualPay Day will be on May 3rd.

Save this date to learn more about the wage gap for AANHPI women.

One year ago today, a shooter murdered eight people in Atlanta, six of them Asian American women from China and Korea.

We remember the victims of the senseless acts of violence, and our thoughts are with their families on this day. #AAPIWomenStrong #StopAsianHate #StopAAPIHate group of women standing in ...
As we grieve, we continue to reflect on the public attacks and tragic incidents targeting Asian American women across the country.

Asian American women have been hypersexualized and objectified for both our race and our gender.
We are visible in the ways that dehumanize us and invisible in the ways that humanize us.

We will keep working to tear down these stereotypes and build a world where AAPI women can be safe in public spaces.

We must call this moment what it truly is: white supremacy, anti-Asian racism, sexism, and sexual violence against Asian American women. Sign our petition: napawf.org/stopasianhate #StopAsianHate
While officials now have announced the shooter's motivations were based on a “sex addiction” and not racial bias, we know firsthand that sexual violence, sexism, and racism are intertwined for Asian American and Pacific Islander women.
In the wake of COVID-19, racist scapegoating have fed this sexist fetishization as part of the spike in the incidents of hate.

Thread on some thoughts from Vivien, our National Field Director: "I’m thinking about all the Asian workers, mothers, their families who have to get up this morning and show up to their jobs at restaurants, salons and spas, convenience stores, grocery stores..." #StopAsianHate
"...not knowing if what they do for a living will keep them alive. I’m thinking about all the racialized misogyny in my life and my loved ones’ lives. How we have been reduced to a sexual fantasy, an ‘easy target,’ and a threat at the same time."
"I’m sick to my stomach thinking about the ideations that led to the violence in Georgia—steeped in xenophobia, sexism, imperialism, and white supremacy. About a year ago, Georgia was mourning Ahmaud Arbery. The state has not had a moment of peace for years."

We are appalled and devastated at the violence in Georgia that has taken eight lives, six of whom were Asian American women. We mourn with the families of these victims.

Statement from @schoimorrow: "We are horrified and continue to be concerned for the safety of our community members across the country as violence toward Asian Americans has escalated."
"Elected officials in Georgia must support these families and speak up immediately against hate and violence directed at the Asian American community."

Hi everyone, this is Da Hae from NAPAWF. Sadly, no would-be pithy tweets from me today, as I take over our account to share the SCOTUS ruling from PA v Trump, also known as Little Sisters. #HandsOffMyBC
If you’ll remember, this case was about whether the Administration can allow employers with religious or moral objections to exempt itself from the ACA’s requirement that health care plans must cover contraception. Today, SCOTUS ruled employers can do that
Justice Thomas sent this case back down to the lower courts and dissolved the nationwide preliminary injunction. This ruling is a clear blow for many. As Justice Sotomayor piercingly pointed out during oral arguments, 75k to 120k women would be affected

This week, NAPAWF, @NLIRH, and @BlackWomensRJ sent a letter to Congress demanding they protect #TitleX.

"Cutting off Planned Parenthood and other providers from this essential program further threatens women of color's access to essential preventive health services" @PPact
@NLIRH @BlackWomensRJ @PPact "This harmful and unlawful regulation denies people of color the ability to make healthy and fully-informed decisions for their bodies and their families, undermining individual agency and bodily autonomy." #TitleX @PPact
@NLIRH @BlackWomensRJ @PPact "Communities of color already face significant barriers to affordable health care services, and the implementation of the Title X rule poses a significant and immediate threat to these critical services." #ProtectX
